• Other reagents for the cleavage of semicarbazones include: Amberlyst. 15 in aqueous acetone: J .Chem. Soc., Perkin 1, 2563 (1988); Dowex. 50 in aqueous suspension: J. Org. Chem., 53, 878 (1988); CuSO4 in aqueous THF: J. Prakt. Chem., 322 1063 (1980).
• Derivatizing agent for carbonyl compounds as their semicarbazones. Also used in heterocyclic synthesis. Semicarbazone formation has been used to separate carbonyl compounds from mixtures by adsorption onto silica gel from a hydrocarbon solution. Regeneration is by hydrolysis with oxalic acid: Tetrahedron, 37, 843 (1981).
